QT: Against My Will

426 7.50 – The Ordeal Part 3 – War Of The Wickeds

Bing Shi didn’t know that even a small tear on her lips could leave Ziek half paralyzed. He had barely avoided one of the rats, before another one leaped full onto him, latching onto him with its claws.

Pinned as he was, Ziek managed to fling his sidearm towards his holster. Three rapid shots had sent the creature stumbling back. As the thing screamed in rage and pain, he threw himself before Silvia to prevent her shoulder from being chewed by a rat.

But was it really necessary? For a romantic scene where the exhausted male lead successfully saved the female lead by throwing his body before her at the last second? Definitely.

Feeling no new injuries on his body, Ziek pulled the trigger at the suffocating rat on the ground. The bullet broke Bing Shi’s invisible barrier surrounding the rat’s head, giving it a less painful death, ‘Fuck me!’ He was still too slow compared to her ability!

Ha leaned next to her side, showing his injured body. Others stopped asking for her healing because they barely received any injuries. She meant it when she said she was going to boost everyone’s ranks.

She weakened every beast they faced, making the whole team look better and stronger than it actually was. If they knew what she had done underneath the tip of the iceberg, they would be worshipping her already.

There was also that kiss from hell thing.

This woman, seriously...was too fucking good at placing a restraining collar around his neck!

If he unleashed his beast, wouldn’t it be the same as saying: come and kiss my wife if you want to be as strong as me?!

.....

Sometimes, Ziek would think of doing really stupid, irrational things. For example, now, he would rather fight against millions of love rivals than let her hard work and beauty go unnoticed.

Bing Shi pressed the button on her helmet, rolling the screen shield up as she glared at her masochistic husband. The sweat sticking to her hair and face mingled with the droplet of blood that was forcing itself out of her nose, “If we don’t end up in the same class because of your stupid actions, I will throw a tantrum so huge you will-”

“Shh.” Ziek caught her fall as he put her to sleep. Bing Shi wasn’t someone who would use threats to make him obey, knowing it would have the opposite effect. She only threatened him seriously once (she would divorce him if he ever made her pregnant). The rest of her threats were too harmless to be taken seriously. They would usually only make him adore her more.

Ziek took her out of the heavy armour and put a gas mask over her face, then placed her on his back for a piggyback. The exoskeleton he built for her legs was not going to work properly in the EMP area anyway. Standing up, the countless injuries on his body disappeared at the speed of the naked eye, making it seem like Silvia exhausted her powers to save him.

Did Silvia shrink in size or something? Without her armour, she looked so absurdly tiny! Liam blocked Ezikiel’s path, thinking of taking Silvia away from the shorty, but how would he fight with additional baggage on his shoulders? He turned around and took the position at the front, “I’m taking over the position of the team leader until she wakes up.”

Liam hated it. He really hated it when they compared him to the top-ranking alphas behind his back. He hated it even more when they started to compare him to mere child bearers. Silvia should have never used that ‘kiss from hell’ spell on herself. The power and strength she obtained from it didn’t suit her at all!

Bertha quickly picked up Silvia’s cane with the backpack and followed behind Ezikiel, shielding their team leader from behind. One day, Silvia came to her, desperately begging her to join the team. She was just a beta that specialized in Denrea language and Denrea history, not a fighter. Why would the school queen bee want her?

Nobody was in a mood to fight over some roles, encircling Ezikiel more tightly, the sixty-eight people took their defensive formation more seriously.

Nobody except Silvia, the team leader, would lose points if she ‘died’, but they also didn’t want to disappoint her and see her throw a tantrum. What were they thinking? After a few hours, everyone would go their own way and act as if they didn’t know each other.

Most of the teammates would be wiped out in the first round. There was never a situation such as this one, where everyone would almost reach the B point together.

Maybe Damon and Victor wiped out a whole path for their team, but it just wasn’t the same. Those two stole the whole show, whereas in their team it was...

They glanced at Bertha, Ezikiel, Liam, and others that received some exposure. They knew they didn’t reach this point because they were the strongest in the school.

With Silvia’s ‘departure’ the atmosphere flipped upside down together with the sensation of being at the pinnacle of the world.

“...” Could someone explain to Ziek how his wife’s body, which was supposed to be asleep, could encircle her hand around his neck?

“Gotcha,” Dai An felt her eyes dropping and her lips quivering into a smile, “Everyone, take care of my little brother. He will take over as the second in command.”

“What the fuck did you just say?” Ziek turned to the side, a frown adorning his forehead as a little smile escaped his lips, “I’m not taking over your babysitting shit,” he coughed due to her controlling the amount of oxygen he could get.

|This is not the right time to be kinky, sweetie.|

Dai An really, really wanted to try out her new knowledge on somebody, so bear with her for a little longer hubby boy. He had to love being a brat a lot, “Silly me, I didn’t know you like being part of the nursery so much.”

“You didn’t, yet you call yourself my older sister?” No matter how that creepy side of his wife responded, Ziek was not going to make the team look better at his expense like Bing Shi did, “I’m scared shitless when there is nobody to watch over me.”

“...” A few team members that eavesdropped on them snickered a few times. As if anyone would ever buy his words. Just to tease the heck out of Ezikiel, they wouldn’t mind putting up a voting pool for him to get appointed as the second in command.

Ziek recollected how they used to bluff everyone about their age and relationship inside the games (Bing Shi’s and Xuan Mu’s childhood).

Because they were two people of opposite genders, who spent most of their days together, some guild members would always try to matchmake them in a very sexual way, which made both of them feel more than uncomfortable.

Grinning to himself, those old memories really made Ziek miss his lost innocence.
